But first, as a backdrop, here are verses from Ephesians 1:15-22 (NKJV). And though I am no Paul the Apostle, I would love all my family in Christ, whom I know and love, to take these same words to heart from me to you:

“… after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty powerwhich He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church,which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.”

And now for the song:

Verse 1 (Original song by Robert Cull)

Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus,
To reach out and touch Him, and say that we love Him.
Open our ears, Lord, and help us to listen.
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus.

Verse 2
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus.
Reveal all Your splendor and fill us with wonder!
Open our minds, Lord, and help us to know You.
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus.

Verse 3
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus,
To tell of His Glory, His eternal story!
Open our mouths, Lord, and help us speak freely.
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus.

What is one of your favorite songs–one that best shows Jesus to you?
